Orchard Road, Palette Knife - SOLD

Orchard Road, Palette Knife Oil on Canvas Panel, 11" x 14" SOLD at $50.00 plus shipping. Detail Below. The palette knife is a cool but tricky tool for painting. I wanted to show the trunk in detail, because it came out with such "magic" to it. Those happy accidents can happen with brushes too, but it's very different with the palette knife. I have no idea what I did that made this work so well. There is a lot of subtlety in this piece that doesn't show up in the photo, but by seeing the detail, you can imagine the kinds of things happening in the rest of the painting.
